I didn't know that. I had a quick look at the changes to ox-odt.el for
the last few months, but it doesn't seem to be mentioned in any of the
commit messages. Or was this a more global change?

Does this also count for the regular #+INCLUDE: statement? I just tested
it and for #+INCLUDE: it seems to work both with and without quotes
(although the manual uses quotes).

Lennart.
